Does this work out fairly alright in price if you spray everything when you buy a new bodykit, except the engine bay, in the original colour, just a re-coat?

Not really, basicly costs the same to respray your car with or without the new body kit.

Prob needs a new thread on this but will try here anyways..

I'm after links to places to get ORIGINAL bodykits? Do they still have these? I'm after..

1. Either GTT or GTR Do-Luck Front Bar

2. Bommex Sides & Rear Bar

Just interested on P&A.. Mainly intersted in Front Bar due to more flex (those with Do-Luck will understand the pain XD).. Still havent decided whether i want GTR Bonnet for a more 'bulky' look

Oh and i have searched the forums.. And i googled (interwebs full of shit these days)

And also if you are going to get the car resprayed.. better to wait and get the bodykit and re-coat done at same time.. should get a cheaper price then getting it done separately.. Plus will be matched 100% as came from same batch paint

yeah i'd be happy with GTR do-luck.. got any links? i'd only want the front bar.. i could just leave the sides & rear as fpr.. it's just the do-luck is so low but so, so hot.. i'm already in the process of cutting my driveway to get the car up easily LOL

hey dale.. i'm assuming you got fpr? i was looking at original.. do-luck state the cost is 105,000 yen.. roughly $1770AU.. but when the economy is better should bring the price down.. just gotta weigh up the adv/disadv against fpr & plastic..

i got a gtt do-luck fpr already on the car.. you got any do-luck gtt - GTR lip to match GTT Front with the GTR bonnet... prob will stick with GTT bonnet but still messing with what i'm after as GTR makes front look tougher.. but i don't wanna make it look GTR when it ain't lol

Yup ours is in FRP (Fibreglass Reinforced Plastic). And at the moment the DoLuck kit we have is only for GTR.

i need the do-luck lip add-on for the bonnet do you psi guys have it?

Nope, sorry mate. Although we are trying to source one, but is proving difficult.

yeah it sucks my car looks so ugly without one >.< this is for the 34 GTR doluck bar btw. i seen viva garage have it on their stag/34 but they said it was custom and wanted to charge 300 for it!!!!

Hey guys drove down to DMD today and got a quote on the bodykit and sprays. This is what he gave me.

For a full M Sport or BN Style bodykit i'm looking at $990 (Not fitted or sprayed)

Add another $1400 to have it fitted and sprayed in the colour of my car.

So around the $2500 mark for a full kit in my fairly plain, stock dark blue colour.

Or for a full respray in a sky blue with no pearl or anything special $6000 for the spray plus $990 for the kit.

So around $7000 for that option...

Now at the moment i'm only working part time and wouldn't be seeing $7k for close to a year if I saved a fair bit... What do you all reckon of the quotes for the options I was given. Theres always the third option of just buying the bodykit and getting it fitted and sprayed elsewhere. Or just not getting it sprayed and drive around in a project car ;)

Let me know your thoughts ;)

Unfortunately i'm on my P's so a turbo skyline is out of the question. Besides i'm not really interested in going fast ey I like the look of skylines don't really mind about the speed it goes. You could basically call me a poser ;) so yea are the quotes ok or?

if you can afford it than go for it!! ask them if they can do a discount, once your pretty serious about it and tell them you want it they would most probly give you a discount on things, and ask them to polish up your headlights for you for free ahah!

    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
